1969 Dodge Dart Custom Sedan Slant Six, Father-Son Project

This is one of those jobs that you underestimate how long it'll take. Suffice it to say that by the time the underhood grime was scraped, brushed, wiped, degreased, sanded, primed, basecoated, and clearcoated, over 30 hours had been spent in that engine bay.

We're redoing the car in the original B7 medium metallic blue, which I was able to find on-line in custom-order spray cans, as well as spray cans of two-part high-gloss clearcoat.

At least now the engine bay looks as clean and new as the engine does. That orange motor in the blue engine bay should really stand out. Big milestone for the day.

Now, back to that headliner....
